Pernštejnské Jestřabí: Discover chapels and landscapes

Pernštejnské Jestřabí combines a distinctive village center with a special setting in the landscape: the Chapel of Our Lady of the Rosary stands in the center. When planning your visit, it is also worth looking beyond the namesake settlement to the municipality’s other settlements. This way, you can place the chapel in the village, the chapel in Jilmoví, a hiking trail through Husle and Jilmoví, and accommodation in Maňová at their respective locations.

Chapels in Pernštejnské Jestřabí and its settlements

The Chapel of Our Lady of the Rosary is a religious landmark of Pernštejnské Jestřabí and stands in the village center. Its copper roof is a distinctive architectural detail; it is also a protected cultural monument. Its central location, roof design, and protected status complement one another: its location anchors the chapel in the village landscape, the copper roof draws attention to its design, and its protected status highlights its cultural and historical value. Those interested in religious architecture and rural local history will find several specific points of interest in this one building.

Jilmoví offers another point of interest: the Chapel of St. Anne is the settlement’s landmark and was built in 1830. The Chapel of Our Lady of Sorrows is located in Maňová. The three chapels differ in their locations and distinguishing details: in Pernštejnské Jestřabí, the central chapel is distinguished by its copper roof and protected status; in Jilmoví, the defining detail is its construction in 1830, while in Maňová, the Chapel of Our Lady of Sorrows provides a specific link to the settlement. In this way, the area’s religious architecture can be explored across several settlements, rather than only in the namesake village.

Riverside setting, nature park, and landscape

Pernštejnské Jestřabí lies on the right bank of the Svratka River and on the southwestern edge of the Svratecká hornatina Nature Park. Other features of the landscape vary in scale: forests stretch across the outer areas of the municipality, and an orchard lies between the settlements of Jilmoví and Husle. The orchard is located between two settlements, while the forests refer to the outer areas of the municipality. Together, these features create a picture that ranges from the riverside setting and the edge of the nature park to specific landscape elements within the municipality.
